A report shows fewer Canadians are working from home than at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. It also found working from home had potentially important implications for society.

    I don’t understand how that’s possible if only 40% of jobs could feasibly be done from home (2019 statistic). That means about half of all jobs that can be done remotely, are? That seems improbable. Thanks for that link BTW.

      YW! BTW, the report does a good job showing how actual and potential work-from-home rates vary a lot by industry, education, earnings, and urban/rural

        Yeah but I really wouldn’t have thought the numbers would be so high. No wonder commercial office space is in such bad shape.
